He considered my flesh, running his fingertips
down the length of my thigh as he nodded and tapped my flank just below one of
my tribal tattoos. I saw him lift his cigar to his lips, puffing a few times,
then watched him lower the cigar to the item he held. Within seconds, the tip
was red. My eyes grew large as I realized what it was.
"Only for a moment," Rochester
re-emphasized as he brought the small trinket to my thigh, meeting my gaze with
his filled with enjoyment.
I screamed as the brand dug into my fat,
cooking the skin and membranes below. My body convulsed, my muscles twitching
and fighting despite the increasing tightness of the muscular man’s hold on me.
I broke out into a cold sweat, muscles quivering from pain, my mouth tasting
bile as I held back sickness.
Finally Rochester took the brand away, tearing
skin as it lifted off. He lowered his head to below where I could see him and I
could feel his warm breath as he blew on the mark. I stiffened in response, the
area smarting. I could already feel the slow continuation of heat as the burn
sensation spread.

Series Book 2
With
the resolve of a child who had grown too much to return home, Seleah
stayed away from StPatrick's complex for twelve years after her
devastating abduction and rescue from criminal mastermind Rochester’s
clutches. When her former lover and friend, Tomlin, calls with the
news of her beloved mentor's demise, however, she decides to come
back to the school and her course is altered dramatically.
Tomlin
can’t stand being away from Seleah any longer. He wants her, needs
her to return for good. His stupidity was almost his downfall. Now,
life has given him a second chance.
But
with their reunion comes jealousy and hatred from an outside source,
threatening to kill them both and the new life they are seeking.
The
pair must learn to accept each other once more; to heal wounds and
scars alike, and decide if their paths can really exist together
forever. Passion, sadness, violence, and the resiliency of love await
in Life’s Hope.
I pulled away, knowing if I didn't we would end up
in a compromising situation. On the other hand, pulling the woman back into the
pitch black hall and making love to her until she cried out my name did have a
certain appeal. I shook my head as I dismissed the idea, watching Seleah’s face
flush. I had forgotten that she, like StPatrick, possessed
the talent of reading ones intentions. It was much more revealing than most
people knew.
She inclined her head, “Another time?” I nodded
and closed the panel, watching her from the darkness. Her words held a promise
that I hoped was true. Now that I had regained a taste of her, my Seleah was
like a drug, coursing through my veins, a disease, ravaging my every thought
and making my body tingle.
That my mind only came up with negative
comparisons I was well aware. I just couldn't be sure yet if that was a good
thing or not.
